I have always agreed that many of the urban caches lack imagination, but 
the fact remains that a person has ever right to hide there cache in the 
manner they choose.  They also have the right to hide as many caches as 
they want.

We have heard people over and over talk about how caches should not be too 
close together.  While I am sure that there are many that agree, you can't 
create a blanket policy that covers such things.  Two of the caches we 
found today as part of the strike force were within .5 miles of each 
other.  Remember, this is a HUGE part of the desert and there are two 
caches within .5 miles.  Just reading the cache pages it would be really 
tempting to claim that they are too close together and archive one of 
them.  If that were to happen, a great cache would be lost.  It doesn't 
matter which one, they were both great caches.

I also think people should remember that a lot of the urban micro caches 
down here in the Tucson area were hidden during the summer forest 
closures.  With so much of the desert around Tucson being in the NF, there 
was little other choice if you wanted to hide or seek a cache.  It looks 
like things will be even worse this year fire danger wise, and I bet you 
will see a lot more urban caches down here.
